Hi guys. I”m trying to help someone who is not frum go to seminary. Are there any summer programs in Israel where she can spend the summer learning Tanach and the like? She is 18 and very smart and beside the fact that she does not have a good background in judaic studies, she really wants to learn and has the potential to do it. (She got accepted to Harvard).She is also looking for someone who would teach her one on one in an Israeli environmment. The teacher/Rabbi/Rebbetzin would also need to be very open to answer all her questions about Judaism. Parents are willing to pay top $ for her studies and to dorm by her teacher inorder to learn the most she can.
Any suggestions?
Try Neve, Eyhat, Jewel… They are all baale teshuvah programs for women in Yerushalayim but I don’t know the differences between them. I’m assuming that they all have summer programs, but I could be mistaken.
I highly recommend that you speak to your local NCSY regional office. If you post what part of the country you are in (not a specific city even, just like midwest, west coast, atlantic seabord, etc., I will get you the contact person. NCSY sends many dozens of kids as you describe to seminaries and yeshivos with scholarships every year.
